We love how comfortable this inn. Everything you need is there- convenient, comfortable and welcoming with a pleasant scent throughout. I love how clean and organize this place. The bathroom was exceptionally fresh and spotless—everything was clean, well-stocked, and smelled great. The kitchen was definitely my favorite part of the inn. It had everything I needed, from cookware to utensils, making it feel just like home. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back and will recommend this place to our friends.

The Klook Chicago pass was easy to use. It helped to organise our short 4 day visit. The Big Bus hop on and Off was a great way to see the city and what tourist attractions was available. I recommend doing a full loop before deciding which tourist attraction to visit first.
